Something For The People Of Memphis (Especially The Blacks)


I'm not impressed with the fact that Joseph Kyles and Kenneth T. Whalum Jr. have become the spokesmen for the Black community of Memphis. I prefer them to Lasimba Gray and the local chapter of the NAACP. I still think we need, and are going in a different direction. Joseph Kyles the director and Kenneth Whalum Jr. the preacher. Are like a blast from the past. They're really just a younger version of the same old thing. I think both of these young men have hidden agendas.That don't represent the Black community as a whole.They just need them to bring their dreams to fruition. Not that I blame them, for their ambition. Just don't make the Black community casualties along the way. I have noticed a new segment on Eyewitness news called "Speaking Out". Everytime I happen to catch this new addition to the news. I see one of these two faces and their commentaries. They give the impression to all viewers, that the Negro citizens of Memphis, are one sided in their thinking. Usually their opinions are liberal at best. Kyles coming across, as a polished lawyer or salesman. Whalum that of a fire and brimstone preacher. The majority of the Black community falling for one or both. Then they choose responses from callers, that are obviously less articulate. To bolster these guys opinions. Making them appear receptive to the masses. This reminds me of Crump era politics.

I have found a variety of subjects discussed here. I especially like the posts about Mempis politics. I'm from Memphis too. I checked your blog out after reading another blog.

Since I last posted here Joseph Kyles has appeared once,and Kenneth Whalum Jr.has been on T.V. twice. "Speaking Out" has become nothing more than free airtime for these two. Kenneth Whalum Jr. is a pastor, and part owner of a radio station.Don't we hear him enough?
